    I don't know if many are aware this place exists here. I know I wasn't. And I'm a bit of a junky when it comes to beauty supply stores. I know of many Sally's in the US, but wasn't aware we had one here. This one is located amongst a giant Wal-Mart and a bunch of outlet stores in Surrey. Yes, I drove to Surrey to go here. A testament to the severity of my obsession.

    Selection here compared to the other beauty supply store I reviewed is quite similar - as far as nail polish goes, they have the China Glaze polishes I love, and different ones than the other place, but the selection of colours is smaller. To make up for it, they stock many other salon-quality brands (Orly, Savvy, Nina Ultra Pro, Finger Paints - I love Finger Paints, they all have art-related names... yes, I'm aware of how much of a dork I am, thank you) but they don't have any OPI. Plus, the prices are much more expensive. You can purchase a Sally's Club Membership card, much like the other store, for five dollars (compared to ten at Secret Nail and Beauty Supply) and I think its supposed to get you some sort of a discount, but I don't think I saw it reflected in my purchase... I could be wrong, I lost the receipt. And they do have a website that you can order from (with MUCH better stock) and I think you can get special discount and offers with your membership card on the site, but I'm not too sure of the specifics. Go and look for yourself. Jeez, make me do all the work for you :p

    They also have a whole whack of hair stuff and various other beauty and salon supplies. Once again, I'm not a professional so I don't really spend a whole lot of time browsing through this stuff. I looked at some basic hair stuff, like rollers and elephant clips, but they seemed kind of overpriced so I ended up putting it back.

    Oh, and by the cash register at the front, they have a whole case of tiny (.18 FL oz.) cute little mini Sally Girl nail polishes. They're sooo cute, only a buck each and have so many bright pretty colors. The dollar price tag will suck you in and devour your change, I tell you!

    All in all, a little bit more expensive than the place on Kingsway but it has a different selection. Which you need sometimes. Right. Okay, I'm going to go do something intelligent now. My brain has liquefied from nail polish fumes and frivolity and is now running out my ears.

    I go to Sally's all the time, I get everything from hairspray to nail clippers here.
    There is a good chance you will be completely ignored from the time you walk in til you pay, but I go for the selection and good prices, not the customer service.
